Introduction
June Neary tries out the Alhambra, SEAT's usefully revised contender in the People Carrier sector

Will It Suit Me?
It would be like buying a sledgehammer to crack a walnut for my husband and me to invest in a six or seven-seater people carrier. However, when you have to ferry three couples home from a charity ball as I did recently, there's nothing better. It's not just the number of seats, it's the comfort that the MPV provides when all of your passengers are adults (and especially when half are wreathed in flounces and frills). The SEAT Alhambra is one of the lesser-known contenders in the sector, but it lacks nothing that its rivals offer - and pound for pound you get more for your money. More about that later. The latest model has a 140bhp TDI diesel borrowed from the Volkswagen Golf.
